High license has worked we'll in Chicago
 Under it the city's yearly revenue from sa-
 loon licenses has increased from $2OO, 900 to
 nearly 5000, ,0OO. In 1882 there were near
 ly 4,OO0 saloons; now there are 3,90O, al- though meanwhile the city has annexed some outlying territory and has grown enormously in population and business. ''I am persuad- ed," says Collector Onahan, "that had the former low license prevailed up to the pres- ent time there would have been fully 1000
 saloons in Chicago" The money for about
 one-half the licenses is advanced by the
 brewers. But for this accommodation, prob
 ably 1000 saloons would shut up shop.
 High license has driven the bars out of the
 grocery stores, and has suppressed large
 number of the small ''neighborhood" sa-
 looms. ''I firmly believe" continues Collec-
 tor Onahan, sthe high license law has oper- ated to diminish considerably the consump- ton of spirituous liquors in this city. But even high license will not of itself operate te close up the lowest and worst class of drink ] ing places. The only way is to deny such places license on any terms; shut them uE and keep them shut, and this power is with.

THE "UNITRD,, LABOR PARTY.

THE "UN1EEDs1 LABOR PARTY.
 The disunion in the "united" labor party is becoming very noticeable. It is evident that the New York Socialists don't mean to let George and McGlynn get ahead of them. They (the Socialists) denounee George and McGlynn for arrogance and inconsistency, and remind them that but for the Socialists their demonstration in the political field last autumn would have been much less imposing than it was. To the latter the attempt now being made by the author of Progress and Poverty" and his reverend lieutenant seems at once insolent, ungrateful and insincere. It is insolent because the Socialists deem themselves the better as well as the older sol- diers; it is ungrateful, because the favors have all been conferred by the Socialists; and it is insincere because it is very well known that the course now entered upon by Mr. George and Dr. McGlynn has been dictated by considerations of political expediency and not by an honest antagonism to the socialistic propaganda.
 The Socialists say that they voted for Henry George, although they didn't approve of his pet land tax theory. They gave him the privilege of preaching free trade, which but few of the great body of workingmen favor. Now, they say, he comes out and shows his ignorance and unfairness by mis- representing the Socialists, and trying to shut them up on the ground that Socialism is an unpopular doctrine. A Socialist thus de- flyers himself: We say that the party found ed on mere theory and bossed by two men is not the labor party. The people think that there are too many preachers and law yers in that one labor party, and that it ought to change it's name to something else. If the great labor party is to dwindle into little land tax party of one idea and one man it is doomed to disaster and ruin. Tc save it it must be made party into whose ranks all genuine workers are welcome Before election the Socialists supported MT George in spite of his land tax theories, be cause they believed he was an honest man Since election MT. George has gone back ward. He has even gone back on his orig | inal scheme of securing the land for the peo pie. Now he says that he doesn't mean te disturb individual ownership in any suct way as the workingmen who voted for hin were promised before election day. Al honest man restricts his pet personal idea when the general welfare demands it, anl does not determine to be at the head at an, Il cost.
 This is interesting and encouraging. Tn
 more squabbling there is between some O the leaders of the ssunited" labor party tn
 better the prospect for this united country.

A Big California Meteor


 Dr. V. V. Goodspeed, resident practi. tioner of this place, reports that on yester- day morning about two o'clock, as he was re- turning home from a sick call in the coun- try, he witnessed one of the strangest phe- nomenal sights ever recorded here. About mile and half south of Ga1t he witnessed the fall of huge meteor. The transient lu- minous body dropped from above ike streak of lightning. So rapid was the fall that the doctor was unable to locate the di- rection or course of the meteor. He says the very earth trembled when the strange body lighted terra frma. The meteor shot into large slough on the ranch of J.. B. Furnish. The doctor was scarcely 8 quarter of mile distant. He was driving down the hill directly south of the slough. ''It was grand sight," the doctor says, ''al- though almost instantaneous"
 The water splashed hundred feet high, and when the spray had cleared away the slough seemed to bubble and sizzle as if A quantity of molten metal had been poured into it. A quantity of steam or vapor was produced that befogged the slough, The morning was very bright, however, and after the slough cleared off 8 little I could per- ceive a yellowish vapor emitting from the water where the meteor fell. The wind was ! blowing toward me, and smelled as if im- pregnated with some foreign substance, not I unlike the smell of sulphur, and was very | disagreeable.
 \ Many people, curious to see the aerolite I have visited the slough. The meteoric stone lies about in the center of the pond, anc from it's position we should think that it wal shot in from northeasterly direction. About \ six feet of the stone is visible above the wa ! ter. It is impossible to estimate the size ot it on account of the marshy nature of the E slough. It looks as if it were wedge-shape, | about one hundred feet wide, and there is no telling it's length. The part of the aer- olite visible above water is of dark gray
 ish color, with scaly: uneven surface. In the water in the slough near the stone is to
 be seen a brownish blue scum often no
 ticed in certain mineral springs. Int
 slough was literally alive with catfish. bu
 they were all killed and are now to b'
 seen by the thousands floating in the wa, ! ter, and upon examination they are found 1 to be parboiled. The water in the slougl | must have attained boiling temperature judging from the condition of the deat fish

 The canning of fruits and vegetables in California has increased rapidly within the last few years. It has nearly trebled in de- cade, the pack of last season exceeding 760, 900 cases and that of 1887 is estimated to be at least thirty per cent. larger, making the production nearly 100000 cases. Fully eighty per cent. of these canned goods are marketed east of the Rocky Mountains, not g few of them being sold for direct export tc Europe.
 IL is perhaps not surprising that some ot the Irish citizens of this country do not look with favor upon the movement to make En- glishmen citizens, but it is surprising that the Catholic American is willing to make such an injudicious and foolish attack upon the movement as it does when it says: They do not desire naturalization from high i'm pulses of patriotism, from laudable admira' tion of republican institutions, with ambition to shoulder the obligations as well as enjoy the privileges of freedom. No. But for spite, for malice, in order the better to put into activity their ennaity toward Americans oi Irish descent they seek the ballot. Raging ] with hatred, they take an oath to be good ! citizens while meditating perversion of the rights of citizenship-the turning aside of the ! right of suffrage from the general good to the I detriment of few. They forswear loyalty \ to their monarch with duplicity, for if they had no intention to persecute Irish Amer1cani l they would remain subjects of. the British | crown.

 said to the contrary, is just as decent as tn present fashion of female garments. It ha also the advantage of being more healthy. |
